SATA 15pin to dual 4pin Molex Y splitter

This power splitter cable converts a single SATA 15pin connector into two 4pin Molex IDE ports. It is intended for builders adding legacy IDE hard drives or optical DVD drives to a modern power supply. The package includes two 30cm cables for multiple device installations.

Check your PSU for a free SATA power connector

Verify that your power supply has an unused SATA 15pin lead before ordering. Ensure the combined current draw of the connected IDE devices stays within the single SATA line limit to avoid triggering overload protection. The 30cm length suits most standard chassis layouts.

Replaces a missing Molex lead on a SATA-only PSU

Use this adapter when your power supply lacks native 4pin Molex outputs but you still need to power older IDE storage or optical drives. The upgrade is worth it when you have spare SATA power ports and want to reuse legacy hardware without replacing the power supply.

Questions about this item

What connectors and cables come in the box, and does anything else need to be purchased?

The box contains two 30 cm SATA 15-pin male to dual 4-pin Molex Y-splitter cables. No additional cables or adapters are required for installation.

Which of the two included cables should I use for my IDE hard drive or DVD drive?

Both cables are identical 1-to-2 splitters, so either one will power an IDE hard drive or DVD drive from a single SATA power connector.

What does the 12 V and 5 V rating mean when the splitter is running inside my PC?

The splitter passes the PSU's 12 V and 5 V rails through to both Molex ports, delivering the voltages legacy IDE drives expect, provided the total current draw stays within the single SATA line's limit.
